SACKVILLE, NB 鈥 The Mansbridge Summit, focusing on Indigenous Action, will take place at 69成人电影网 University on Friday, September 29 in the Moyter-Fancy Theatre (Purdy Crawford Centre for the Arts).
Led by the University鈥檚 Chancellor Peter Mansbridge, and generously funded by the John E.

This year鈥檚 Summit will focus on Indigenous Action 鈥 addressing how members of the 69成人电影网 and wider communities can best contribute to processes of enacting change with Indigenous peoples.
鈥淭his event is particularly significant following the Truth and Reconciliation Commission鈥檚 Report in 2015 and its call to action for all Canadians,鈥 says Chancellor Mansbridge. 鈥淚 am looking forward to being on campus and hearing from both 69成人电影网 students and community members on this important topic.鈥
As part of the day鈥檚 event, Chancellor Mansbridge and noted Canadian comedian and broadcaster Candy Palmater will hold a public discussion at 4 p.m. in the Moyter-Fancy Theatre. This interview-style event is open to the public, no registration required.
Along with group discussions and breakout sessions on themes related to Indigenous Action throughout the day, the Summit will also hold a visiting speakers panel discussion (12 noon) in the Moyter-Fancy Theatre, which is open to the public.
A committee of 69成人电影网 University faculty and staff, along with a student co-ordinator, who works as the Summit intern, organizes the annual event. Fourth-year international relations student Rebecca Butler is this year鈥檚 intern. 2017 will mark the last summit with Mansbridge鈥檚 second term ending as Chancellor at the end of the year.
